Giuffria was formed in the early '80s by ex-
Angel keyboardist
Gregg Giuffria. The band included vocalist
David Glen Eisley, guitarist
Craig Goldy, bassist
Chuck Wright, and drummer
Alan Krigger. Similar to the power pop/arena hard rock style of
Journey,
Giuffria's 1984 self-titled debut met with marginal success, spawning the hit single "Call to Your Heart."
Giuffria went on to open for
Deep Purple and
Foreigner before headlining a tour of their own in Japan. Replacing Goldy and Wright with
Lanny Cordola and
David Sikes,
Giuffria's second, 1986 release,
Silk and Steel, suffered from lack of promotion and tour support. After the band quietly disbanded,
Gregg Giuffria regrouped with Cordola and Wright to form
House of Lords. ~ Shawn Perry
